If you do not have a measuring tape, you can use a thin string or strip of paper to wrap around your wrist and then measure the length with a ruler. 📏 Please provide the actual measurement of your wrist *snugly against the skin with no slack*. When crafting the bracelet, we will add approximately 0.5 to 1 cm of ease for a comfortable fit. What does wrist size affect? Different wrist sizes may result in variations in the number of crystals and brass components, but the overall design style and theme will remain consistent. ⚠️ If modifications are needed due to incorrect wrist measurement: • General Modifications: Round-trip shipping fees will apply. • Clasp Bracelets: An additional modification fee of NT$50 will be charged. • For wrist sizes 16 cm and above: Additional charges will apply due to increased material usage. ⸻ 《Purchase Notice》 All products from this studio are handmade and made-to-order. Each bracelet is personally curated and crafted by us. Except for products with obvious defects or incorrect specifications, custom and bespoke orders are non-refundable and non-exchangeable. 🔮 Natural Characteristics of Natural Crystals The crystals, gemstones, and pearls we use are natural materials. Therefore, each piece may exhibit slight internal fractures, inclusions, mineral deficiencies, color variations, or natural textures, and no two will be exactly alike. These natural traces are precisely what give natural minerals their unique charm. 💎 If you seek crystals that are perfectly uniform and free from any natural imperfections, we recommend confirming your acceptance of these characteristics before placing an order. 📿 Jewelry naturally changes with time and wear. Brass may oxidize and change color, and accessories may fade or wear down due to sweat, friction, and environmental conditions. These are normal signs of use. ⸻ 《Can I wear it while showering?》 Crystals themselves are generally not afraid of contact with clean water. However, brass and elastic cords are less suitable for prolonged exposure to moisture, sweat, and cleaning agents. Brass tends to oxidize and darken quickly with prolonged exposure to moisture. Elastic cords soaked in water for extended periods may also shorten their lifespan. For clasp bracelets, which are less convenient to remove daily, practical testing shows that brass components typically show darkening first after prolonged wear. If you do not mind the natural oxidation of brass over time, wearing it occasionally during showers is not strictly prohibited. However, we still recommend: • 🛀🏻 Avoiding prolonged contact with shower gels, shampoos, and detergents. • 💦 Rinsing the bracelet thoroughly after showering. • 🧻 Drying it completely with a towel or hairdryer before storing. • ♨️ Avoiding prolonged immersion in hot water. To ensure your bracelet lasts longer, the ideal practice is to remove it before showering, bathing in hot springs, or swimming. ⸻ 《Materials》 🔮 Crystals • Gemstones • Pearls All are made from natural materials, each possessing unique natural textures and colors. ✨ Metal Accessories Metal accessories, apart from crystals, are primarily made from materials such as brass and gold-filled/K-gold-filled. Actual materials vary by design. 📿 Clasp Bracelets Uses Japanese steel wire soft thread, a commonly used material for jewelry, known for its excellent strength and durability. 🧵 Stretch Bracelets Uses Japanese silk elastic cord, crafted with a double-strand construction for enhanced stability and durability. The lifespan of elastic cords varies depending on wear frequency, stretching, contact with moisture, and individual usage habits. If the cord shows signs of significant fraying, loosening, or breakage, stop wearing it immediately and send it for repair to prevent the crystals from scattering. ⸻ 《Crystal Cleansing and Daily Care》 After daily wear, you can "cleanse/degauss" your crystals according to your personal habits. If you have a crystal cave or cluster at home, you can place the bracelet in it overnight. Alternatively, you can use clear quartz chips placed in a small clean dish, and then rest the bracelet on top. ✨ There is no fixed frequency for cleansing; follow your personal usage habits. Avoid excessive frequency. ⸻ 《Brass Accessory Care》 Brass oxidizes to varying degrees due to sweat, humidity, air, and individual body chemistry, so the rate of color change differs for everyone. If the brass color darkens, you can: • Gently polish it with a polishing cloth or a cloth suitable for brass. • Clean it simply with a mild neutral detergent after wearing. • Ensure it is completely dry after cleaning before storing. When not wearing it, you can also rinse off sweat with clean water and dry it with a dry cloth. 💡 To prevent moisture from lingering between beads, you can use a hairdryer on a "cool setting" to dry it before storing it in a resealable bag. ⚠️ Please ensure the bracelet is completely dry before storing. Prolonged exposure to humid environments can accelerate brass oxidation and may shorten the lifespan of elastic cords. ⸻ 《Daily Cleaning Tips》 If you tend to sweat easily, it is recommended to clean your bracelet regularly. Over time, sweat and dirt can accumulate between beads. If you use a mild neutral detergent when washing your hands, you can take the opportunity to clean your bracelet simply. After cleaning, remember to: Rinse thoroughly → Dry → Ensure completely dry → Then store Keeping your crystal bracelet clean can also extend the life of your jewelry. ☺️ ⸻ 🤍 Final Reminder Each imperfection in natural crystals is a unique mark left by nature; similarly, the color changes in brass over time will gradually imprint your personal use onto each piece. If you are particularly concerned about the natural textures, mineral inclusions, color variations of natural crystals, or the oxidation and discoloration of brass, please confirm and consider carefully before placing an order. Thank you for allowing "Philosopher’s Stone" to accompany you in collecting your own unique crystal. ✨
